Abstract: The apparatus (1) comprises at least two balancing rings (10) disposed in axial side by side relationship and coaxial with each other on the rotating body (13) to be balanced. The rings (10) are each unbalanced and rotatable with the rotating body (13), but can each be angularly rotated relative to the latter through positioning means (27). These means may comprise either a gear (29) that can be selectively engaged in rotation with peripheral toothings (28) of the rings (10) when the rotating body (13) is stopped, to bring the rings (10) to a relative angular position to which the situation of balance of the rotating body (13) corresponds, or locking elements to be selectively engaged with peripheral notches in the rings (10) to retain the rings (10) one by one while the rotating body (13) is rotated relative to said rings (10) through such an angle that the angular balance position is achieved.

Abstract: A system and method for remote asynchronous replication or mirroring of changes in a source file system snapshot in a destination replica file system using a scan (via a scanner) of the blocks that make up two versions of a snapshot of the source file system, which identifies changed blocks in the respective snapshot files based upon differences in volume block numbers identified in a scan of the logical file block index of each snapshot. Trees of blocks associated with the files are traversed, bypassing unchanged pointers between versions and walking down to identify the changes in the hierarchy of the tree. These changes are transmitted to the destination mirror or replicated snapshot. This technique allows regular files, directories, inodes and any other hierarchical structure to be efficiently scanned to determine differences between versions thereof. The changes in the files and directories are transmitted over the network for update of the replicated destination snapshot in an asynchronous (lazy write) manner. The changes are described in an extensible, system-independent data stream format layered under a network transport protocol. At the destination, source changes are used to update the destination snapshot. Any deleted or modified inodes already on the destination are moved to a temporary or "purgatory" directory and, if reused, are relinked to the rebuilt replicated snapshot directory. The source file system snapshots can be representative of a volume sub-organization, such as a qtree. <IMAGE>

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for determining an optimal transmission path in a data network, wherein the network subscribers (1-14) exchange data in a wireless manner, preferably by radio communication, along a plurality of transmission routes. A first subscriber of the transmission route transmits a search request which can be used as stations of transmission paths by subscribers (1-14) who receive said search request, measure the receiving field intensity, add an identifier to the search request and the measured receiving field intensity, whereupon the search request is subsequently transmitted. The network subscriber (1-14) who is the second subscriber of the transmission route measures the receiving field intensity of the search request and adds to the search request, that which out of all the received search requests contains the optimum transmission route in terms of number of stations and quality of the links between said stations. Said second subscriber of the transmission route transmits said search request thus determined. Each network subscriber (1-14), who receives said search request and whose identifier is contained in said search request stores the identifier registered in the search request prior to his or her identifier as an identifier of a subscriber whose signals are to be retransmitted and retransmits said search request.

Abstract: A middle layer network protocol enhancement, virtual connectivity (VC) makes the network attachment point changes of local and remote peers transparent to applications that use network services. A virtual connectivity module local to each peer translates communication connection parameters from apparent to real and vice versa, as well as sending and receiving secure connection updates directly to and from peers. Unlike Mobile IP, no routing infrastructure modifications are required. A subscribe-notify service provides connection update notifications when direct peer-to-peer connection updates are not possible, for example, when two communicating peers move simultaneously or when the moving peer is communicating with a peer behind network address translation (NAT). Methods for detecting these conditions are disclosed, as is a virtual connectivity protocol and virtual connectivity module architecture.
